In our mundane lives, we often forget to devote little time for ourselves- to think introspect and rectify ourselves. Dismissal of our own emotional needs can have disruptive consequences on our mental health. The gnawing agony will mentally drain us.

Reading and writing can be one’s trustworthy companions which can help one to rejuvenate oneself. Once you devour yourself into the book, you will discover unique horizon; which is not limited to the characters or the narration, but includes desires, hope, anguish, grief, joy of the protagonists and the antagonists as well as the supporting characters. You can find relatable circumstances and you can refine yourself through the process of reading.

Reading fertilizes your intellectual development and compliments your individuality. Whenever our psychological peace is distorted due to any reason, writing can be the savior. The outrage you frugally try to keep obscured can be expressed by penning down your thoughts and emotions. Writing offers a non- judgmental platform; you can pour your heat out through beautifully crafted words and sentences. Reading and writing can immensely contribute towards restoring your mental health; it just requires a little bit of interest and effort to establish the everlasting and secured bond between mental health and reading and writing. Then you can find a way of saving yourself from the abyss of darkness and pain and channelize them to create a positive energy to live, love and explore.
